BELGRADE, Montana – The Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport runway is cleared after a Cessna business jet aircraft landed on the main runway with nose gear up.

No injuries were reported from the airport.

Pictures circulating on social media showed a Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with the back half of the landing gear holding up the fuselage with the nose of the plane resting on the snowy runway.

A couple hours later the Bozeman Airport Twitter account reported that the aircraft was out of the way and a few arriving planes were delayed and diverted during the time crews worked to move the disabled plane.
